To our Paulsboro community a message from Chief Gary Kille:

Over the past several weeks, gun violence in Paulsboro has increased resulting in property damage and serious injury. While we believe these recent events are not random, unintended victims will continue to be put in harm’s way by the person/s committing these acts of violence.

The Paulsboro Police Department will continue to have a zero tolerance approach for violence in our community. We will aggressively pursue those individuals responsible for terrorizing our community and putting our citizens at jeopardy. We have enlisted the assistance of the Gloucester County Prosecutors Office along with other State and Federal agencies in an attempt to curb the violence. Patrol functions have been doubled and are targeting specific areas of the borough to identify any known suspects through proactive patrol techniques. Investigative staff have also been detailed to specific hours and areas to support the objective at hand.

The Paulsboro Police Department along with Mayor and Council are looking to partner with the community to formulate a holistic approach to addressing these issues. We would encourage anyone who may have any information to please contact the Paulsboro Police Department or the Gloucester County Prosecutors Office. Reports will be held confidential and can also remain anonymous by contacting;
